Blurb:
Hayden and his fellow cats find their way to paradise:
TALULA TUPPERMAN’S HOME FOR DISTRESSED FELINES. But Rodney and Stanley, cat
kidnappers, are on their trail, and suddenly cats begin to vanish. Can Hayden
and his troop put a stop to these mysterious disappearances before they
mysteriously vanish, too?
Excerpt:
“This really is a wonderful spot. Hi, Pudding,” Timmi
meowed, fully intending to enjoy her first moment away from her mother since
their arrival.
“If it weren’t for T-Rex and his bunch, it would be
perfect,” Pouncie said. “Did I tell you about the great lap I found?”
Timmi and Pouncie chatted, decided on a brief, joyful run,
and then walked toward the house, hoping for some wet food. Suddenly, Pouncie
stopped and dropped into a hunting pose.
“Timmi, stop. Come here. Sniff. Do you smell it?”
Timmi stopped and turned her head side to side inspecting
the odors in the air.
“That’s impossible,” Timmi said softly.
“It’s coming from the house. Let’s go see.”
The two cats crept through the grass, ignoring the other
cats clustered around the porch, who also hoped for some wet food.
“It’s getting stronger,” Timmi said softly.
“Let’s not get too close,” Pouncie warned. “This is far
enough.”
Both cats lowered themselves to the grass and stared at the
porch. Moments later they leaped to their feet, ready to run as Rodney and
Stanley came out onto the porch accompanied by the two ladies.
